“…predominant right side PD motor symptom onset PwPD was small in magnitude, and did not attain significance. As noted earlier, the typical unilateral motor symptom onset of PD is associated with more pronounced dopaminergic denervation contralateral to the presenting symptoms (De Risi et al, 2018;Stirnimann et al, 2018). Consequently, these data align with other literature showing a potential right hemispheric specialisation of emotional and social processing (e.g.…”

“…This was an important question to address, because for PwPD, the onset of motor symptoms is typically unilateral. This asymmetry is associated with more pronounced dopaminergic denervation in the basal ganglia, contralateral to the presenting symptoms (De Risi et al, 2018;Stirnimann et al, 2018), with this pattern said to persist even after motor symptom presentation becomes bilateral (Garrido-Vásquez et al, 2012;Ille et al, 2016). As there is some evidence for right hemispheric specialisation for emotional and social processing (e.g.…”

Highlights  Parkinson's disease is associated with significant social perceptual impairment. The magnitude of this impairment is broadly equivalent across facial and prosodic modalities. Social perceptual impairment is evident for all six basic emotions, but is generally greater for negatively valanced emotions. Both dopaminergic medication and subthalamic nucleus deep brain stimulation are associated with poorer social perceptual function.

“…Impairments of facial emotion recognition in PD patients were found to be independent of depressive symptoms [ 167 , 179 - 181 ], executive deficits [ 179 , 180 ], and clinical aspects (i.e., disease duration and severity, [ 180 ]). Moreover, some studies revealed that emotion recognition abnormalities may occur after subthalamic nucleus stimulation [ 182 - 185 ], probably due to alterations of projections to cortical areas, particularly the OFC, which has been already implicated in emotion recognition [ 186 ].…”

Social cognitive function, involved in the perception, processing, and interpretation of social information, has been shown to be crucial for successful communication and interpersonal relationships, thereby significantly impacting mental health, well-being, and quality of life. In this regard, assessment of social cognition, mainly focusing on four key domains, such as theory of mind (ToM), emotional empathy, and social perception and behavior, has been increasingly evaluated in clinical settings, given the potential implications of impairments of these skills for therapeutic decision-making. With regard to neurodegenerative diseases (NDs), most disorders, characterized by variable disease phenotypes and progression, although similar for the unfavorable prognosis, are associated to impairments of social cognitive function, with consequent negative effects on patients' management. Specifically, in some NDs these deficits may represent core diagnostic criteria, such as for behavioral variant frontotemporal dementia (bvFTD), or may emerge during the disease course as critical aspects, such as for Parkinson's and Alzheimer's diseases. On this background, we aimed to revise the most updated evidence on the neurobiological hypotheses derived from network-based approaches, clinical manifestations, and assessment tools of social cognitive dysfunctions in NDs, also prospecting potential benefits on patients' well-being, quality of life, and outcome derived from potential therapeutic perspectives of these deficits.

“…Several studies revealed deficits in emotion recognition in PD patients with respect to healthy controls. [36][37][38] However, other studies failed to confirm these deficits. [39,40] A meta-analytic review, [41] investigated facial and vocal emotion recognition of PD patients, revealed significant and modest alterations of this ability independently from the level of motor symptoms.…”

Background: The novel coronavirus 2019-nCoV caused by SARS-CoV-2, has caused global, large and major public health issues. During the pandemic, different public health strategies were implemented in order to reduce the spread of this virus. These strategies consisted on increasing the frequency of hand-washing, using personal protection equipment, social distancing and restricting movements cities along with sealing national borders. During this crisis, Health Systems undergo important pressure and remarkable efforts were implemented to provide an efficacious reaction to this emergency. However, the actual global policy of diverting the attention exclusively to the COVID-19 pandemic and overshadowing other clinical conditions may have substantial negative implications. There are particular concerns around the increased vulnerability of patients living with a chronic disease, and this also includes neurological conditions like Parkinson’s disease (PD). Aims: This review discusses the different outcomes of social distancing on PD patients and summarizes the circuitry of social behaviour in the context of PD. We consider the possible psychological and behavioral outcomes of quarantine and social isolation as part of national policies to limit the spread of the virus. Conclusion: In total, this evidence suggests that the drastic COVID19 pandemic measures could result in affective, cognitive and psychological alterations in these patients. Given this we suggest that patients with PD should be accompanied by their caregivers and encouraged to interact virtually with other family members and friends using different communication technologies. We also recommend healthcare providers to adopt telemedicine for outpatients visits and display educational programs for the patients.
